I received this book to give an honest review.

So this book was a very long book for us and I think it was because of the very long chapters.

The book was full of adventure and K thought it was really neat how they went back in time to meet others and had a mystery to solve. We both had fun trying to cipher the code though we really had no clue what we were doing.

Another great thing about this book is the fact it is very family oriented everything is done with family and I think that is an amazing part to have in a book that you read to a child, even when they are older.

I do love how educational this book was and it had K asking a lot of questions about history which was a great thing.

I never heard of Shenandoah National Park and when I looked it up I was amazed at how it was a real National Park. That is something I never remember learning in school just by reading this book as a parent I felt as though I learned a bit.

This is a great book for about 10 and up as it is filled with plenty of adventure and history!
